Mist Fairy

Chapter 196 Sanhe Town

Coming out of the pier, one can see a long street about two feet wide, paved with gray-black stone slabs.Along both sides of the street is a row of storefronts.

Sanhe Town is not too big, it mainly consists of two streets in east and west, and two districts in north and south.Shops are concentrated on the street.There are residential buildings outside the street.

All the shops here are hung with black lanterns.It is a lantern covered with black cloth or black paper.This kind of lantern cannot be illuminated, and no light will come through.In fact, this kind of lantern is not for lighting people at all.

During the day, this kind of lantern is useless, and the guests who come are all human.At night, this kind of lantern will be lit, and the lit lantern represents the business of this store, and the people who come here are naturally not human beings, but ghosts.

The ghosts will use paper money to spend in the store. These paper money are the paper money that Tong Lang sprinkled out.This paper money can be regarded as the currency of Sanhe Town.

Throughout Sanhechuan, there are more dead people than living people, and dead people have more spending power than living people.

Zhang Cundao walked on the streets of this town, and the streets were bustling and lively.However, the shops next to it mostly do business in the underworld.Yangjian's business is just a cramped small shop selling herbs, department stores, food and the like.The more high-end ones, that is, the larger pavement, sell some spiritual herbs, spiritual mines, talismans and magic tools.

This kind of shop is often decorated plainly and is extremely inconspicuous.

But the shops that do business in the underworld are different.These shops often occupy a large area, and the door is made of high-quality ebony carvings, with gold and silver decorations inside, bright pearls, mercury as the scenery, and moss clothes on the floor.

And the business they do is also shrouds and materials, underworld candles, corpse oil and bone meal and other underworld things.If you think these are ordinary things, then you underestimate the ghosts here.

The shroud is made of high-quality Yin silk, and its defensive power is not weaker than some defensive magic weapons.Shoucai is an important place for ghosts to practice. It is not only made of high-quality gloomy wood, but also has practical formations such as defensive formations and Yin-hui formations. The inside of Shoucai is inlaid with gold and white jade, animal skin and animal bones , extremely luxurious decoration.

Underworld candles, corpse oil and bone powder are the resources to promote ghost cultivation, which are similar to the resources needed for human cultivation.

What surprised Zhang Cundao was that these shops were also open during the day, and there were actually people going to buy them!There are thousands of ways to practice, and some people practice this...

Zhang Cundao took a quick look at the properties in this town, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.He walked along the street and soon came to the gate of the town.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a piece of white paper pasted on the door, with black words written on the white paper.

[One, don't go out of town at night. 】

[[-]. If you must pay, please bring enough paper money. 】

[Three, no matter day or night, please do not ask anyone for directions after leaving the town. 】

[[-]. After leaving the town, if someone asks you for directions, don't answer them. 】

[[-]. There are no persons surnamed Qiao, Ma, Gou, Niu, and Yan in the town. 】

[[-]. There are no watchmen, cooks, woodcutters, butchers, etc. sent out from the town. 】

[[-]. There has never been a fire in the town. If you find a fire, please do not stay and leave quickly. 】

[[-]. Weddings and funerals are not allowed in the town, and no similar banquets are held. 】

[[-]. The lanterns hanging at the gate of the town are red on the left, seven in total, and black on the right, eight in total, never changing. 】

【[-]. Do not discuss these ten items with others outside the town. 】

After reading these ten articles, Zhang Cundao felt a little fuzzy in his heart for some reason.

He was just about to walk out of the gate of the town, when suddenly his heart moved, but he felt sleepy... After counting, it seemed that three days had passed!
This is going back to the real world...

He retracted the foot he was about to step out, turned around and returned to the town. If he remembered correctly, there is an inn in the town specially for living people...

After exchanging some paper money with his belongings, Zhang Cundao lived in this Sanhe inn. The inn was not too big, but it was very clean.The shopkeeper doesn't talk much, and his face is not good-looking, but the cook's craftsmanship is good, and the Sanhe fish is very delicious.

Zhang Cundao reserved a room for seven days, and told the shopkeeper: "I may have to sleep for three to five days, please don't disturb me these days."

The shopkeeper nodded, as long as the rent is enough, he won't bother to talk to you.

Afterwards, Zhang Cundao returned to the room, released the two swords of Changqing and Changying to be on guard, then sat cross-legged on the bed, and gradually disappeared!
......................................................

In a daze, Zhang Cundao was awakened by a cry.

"Boy! Baby! Wake up! It's getting colder after a while, why are you sleeping on the ground!"

Zhang Cundao was woken up, and an old man in a sanitation suit looked at him with a hint of concern on his face.

Zhang Cundao was startled, and immediately looked around.At this moment, he was lying in a culvert, above the culvert was a rumbling train, and in the culvert was a road.It was early morning at this time, and there were not many vehicles coming and going, only the old man's three-wheeled sanitation vehicle 'Bao ⑩ Jie' was particularly conspicuously parked in front of him.

"Where is this place! Master!" Zhang Cundao asked.

"It's a foreigner!" The uncle muttered to himself, and then said: "This is the culvert by the side of Chunxi Road, are you drunk? Just fell asleep here. Be careful of catching a cold!"

"Chunxi Road?" Zhang Cundao showed a look of confusion, but he still got up and said thank you to the uncle, and then walked along the road.Seeing his confused look, the uncle couldn't help but shook his head, and said, "These young people are so desperate to drink that no one knows when they are lying on the side of the road."

At this time, Zhang Cundao looked up at the sky, and then at the surrounding environment.After walking for a while, I came across a shop.The store had just opened, and the owner was sorting out newspapers. Zhang Cundao picked up a newspaper and read it.There are four big characters "Jincheng Morning Post" written on it!
Fuck!Isn't Jincheng another name for Shu County? Am I in Shu County?That's far enough!Zhang Cundao's heart skipped a beat.Then he touched his pocket, and managed to take out two hundred-yuan bills from his pocket.

He turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Boss, can I make long distance calls?"

The chubby boss glanced at him, listened to his accent, nodded and said: "Yes." After speaking, he took the key and turned on the long-distance switch of the landline.

Zhang Cundao dialed Wenxi's mobile phone number, waited quietly for a while, and then came a puzzled voice: "Hello?"

This early in the morning, an unfamiliar number from another place will always make people feel strange.She was about to go downstairs and wait for Zhang Cundao to run!
"It's me, Zhang Cundao." Zhang Cundao said immediately.

"It's you! Why don't you use your mobile phone to make calls? This is not your landline." Wen Xi asked in surprise.

Zhang Cundao quickly said: "I'm out of town now, and I don't have my mobile phone with me. I guess I won't be able to go back for a while. Please help me ask for a leave from the department, and I will ask you for a leave too."

Wen Xi is the HR manager of the company, in charge of attendance.

Hearing Zhang Cundao's words, Wen Xi was even more confused. She asked, "What happened to you? You ran out of town overnight without even taking your mobile phone?"

Zhang Cundao sighed, and said: "Something really happened this time, and I didn't expect that I would come to another place. I will go back when the matter is settled. Don't worry, I haven't committed anything."

Hearing this, Wen Xi settled down a little, and then said, "Where are you? Is it important or not, do you want me to help you?"

"No need, you still have to keep an eye on the company for me. I need you to contact the company in Guangnan. I'm really not in a hurry. I'll call you when I'm settled. I'm using a public phone Yes. Hang up."

After Zhang Cundao finished speaking, the phone hung up. Wen Xi wanted to say something, but there was no chance.She frowned, but finally chose to believe in Zhang Cundao.

Here, Zhang Cundao, who hung up the phone, looked at the shop and said, "Boss, bring me another bottle of water, this bread, and tea eggs." The small shop also sells simple breakfasts, so Zhang Cundao simply I asked for some food.

A hundred-yuan bill was handed over, and the boss held it for a long time before giving Zhang Cundao some change.

Holding water, eating bread and tea eggs, the owner's tea eggs are well cooked and very tasty.He touched his pocket and found that he still had more than 190 yuan, which would take a long time.

This foggy world has changed regions, and this real world has also changed regions.Even if he goes to Wangchuan Town in the future, there is a high probability that he will appear in Shu County, so he probably will stay in Shu County for a long time.

It's a bit troublesome to go out and don't have much money.It's not easy for Wen Xi to wire him a sum of money, otherwise Wen Xi will be worried.

Besides, how can a man be stumped by mere money.

While thinking, he walked on the road, and then entered a relatively busy street.

This street has a lot of traffic, and there are shops on both sides of the street, which is obviously a commercial street.On the side of the street, there are also some people setting up small stalls, which are very common, and most of them sell small gadgets, or fruit snacks.

Zhang Cundao bought some snacks and found that they tasted good. These days, those who dare to set up a stall are those who are confident in their craftsmanship.

Zhang Cundao watched for a while, and then walked into a nearby store selling jade.

The store had just opened, and the beautiful clerk was still cleaning up the goods. She suddenly saw Zhang Cundao coming in, and quickly smiled and said, "Hello, customer, is there anything I can do for you?" She spoke authentic Mandarin.

Zhang Cundao looked at it casually, and then sighed in his heart, the difference is that it is close to the southwest region, and this jade is much cheaper.

He smiled and said, "Do you have Ziyu here? I want to see Ziyu."

Ziyu is uncut jade, and some even have only one cut face. Many of this kind of jade are kept by the master because they are not sure and are not easy to cut. The price is naturally cheaper.

Hearing that Zhang Cundao wanted to buy Ziyu, the clerk's smile was slightly restrained, and then he said: "Please go this way." Then he brought Zhang Cundao to a corner, and there was a large plate of Ziyu in the corner.These seed jades are piled up randomly, many of them are dusty and look like stones.
